Today's location page
Today's spot on a map with hours, parking notes and the week ahead, shown on your website and Google.
Food truck software: location, pre-orders & event bookings
Food trucks: tell them where you are and let them order ahead. Serve more, scroll less.
Today's spot is buried in an Instagram story, the lunch queue gives up and walks off, wedding enquiries sit in your DMs and the brisket sells out at 12.15. We build location, ordering and booking systems for food trucks that all talk to each other. Then we host them and look after them.
Looking for food truck software that shows where you are and takes orders before they reach the window?
A food truck is a kitchen, a shopfront, a catering business and a marketing department squeezed into a few square metres that moves every day. Monday it's a business park, Wednesday a school fete, Saturday a market and Sunday a wedding two hours inland. Customers can't find you, the queue peaks for forty minutes then vanishes and every event wants a different menu. Most trucks hold it together with Instagram stories, a paper diary and a phone that never stops buzzing.
Wollopit builds custom food truck software around how your truck actually runs. Set today's spot once and it shows on your website, Google and your regulars' phones. Customers order ahead and pick a pickup time so the window keeps moving. Event and catering bookings come in with the details you need, quotes go out and deposits land in Xero. We connect the POS you already like, build what's missing and look after the lot on our own servers, so you can get back to cooking.
01The problems
What we hear from food trucks
Does your food truck have these problems? Here's how we'd fix them.
Most trucks we talk to cook brilliant food and run the business from a phone with 4% battery between orders. It works, right up until the lunch rush hits.
- The problemNobody knows where you are todayYour spot goes up as an Instagram story that disappears in 24 hours. The website still says 'follow us on socials'.How we fix itA today's location page with a map, hours and the week ahead. Set it once and it updates your website and Google Business Profile.
- The problemThe lunch queue walks offTwenty people deep at 12.10, office workers with a half-hour break give up and go to the servo.How we fix itOrder-ahead with pickup time slots, paid up front. You cap orders per slot so the kitchen never drowns.
- The problemEvery event wants a different menuFull menu at the market, five items at the festival, a kids' menu at the school fete. Customers see the wrong one online.How we fix itA live menu manager with a saved menu for each type of gig. Pick one for today and the website and ordering switch over.
- The problemSold out but still sellingThe pulled pork ran out an hour ago and people keep ordering it online or asking at the window.How we fix itOne-tap sold-out toggles from your phone. The item disappears from ordering and the menu board straight away.
- The problemWedding and event bookings by DMEnquiries come through Instagram, Facebook, email and text with half the details missing. Some never get a reply.How we fix itAn event booking form that asks the right questions: date, guest numbers, power, access and menu. Quotes and deposits follow on.
- The problemRegulars can't find youYour best customers would come every week if they knew you were nearby. Right now they find out after you've packed up.How we fix itLocation alerts by area. Regulars sign up for the suburbs they care about and get an SMS or email when you're parked close.
- The problemThe diary is a messMarkets, festivals, council spots and private gigs in a paper diary, a Google calendar and someone's head. Double bookings happen.How we fix itOne gig calendar with every booking, market and permit spot, plus clashes flagged before you say yes.
- The problemPrep is guessworkToo much brisket for a quiet Tuesday, not enough for a packed Saturday. Either way it costs you.How we fix itPrep lists built from pre-orders, booked guest numbers and what sold last time at that spot.
- The problemFood safety logs in a soggy notebookFridge temps, cleaning and delivery checks scribbled on paper that lives under the till and gets wet.How we fix itFood safety checklists on your phone with temperature logs, photos and a record ready when the EHO turns up.
- The problemNo idea which spots payYou've got a feeling the Thursday market is a waste of petrol but nothing to prove it.How we fix itTakings per location and per event pulled from your POS, so you can see which spots are worth the drive.

04How it changes
Before and after
A lunch rush, wolloped.
Here's how a weekday lunch at the business park could change. Every truck runs differently, so we map yours first.
Before
- Post today's spot as an Instagram story and hope
- Queue twenty deep at 12.10
- Half of them give up and leave
- Brisket sells out but people keep asking
- A wedding enquiry sits unread in your DMs
- No idea if today was worth the drive
After
- Set today's spot and regulars get an alert
- Pre-orders spread across pickup slots
- The window keeps moving and nobody walks off
- Brisket marked sold out in one tap
- The wedding enquiry arrives with every detail
- Takings for the spot are there when you pack up

07How we work
The process
Some people dip their toe in. We turn up in a rebreather.
We get properly below the surface of your food truck: the systems, the busy days and the jobs everyone hates. Then we fix the bits that matter most first.
- 01
Think
We spend a shift in and around the truck, from the morning prep to the lunch rush, then work out what's actually slowing you down.
- 02
Archi-tech
We plan it before writing code: your spots, menus, ordering, event bookings, POS, hosting and cost.
- 03
Build
Real engineering, shown to you early and often. Usually the location page or order-ahead first, so you get a win before your next busy weekend.
- 04
Look after
We host it, maintain it and keep improving it. When something breaks you call the people who built it.
08Questions
FAQ
Things food trucks ask us.
Something else on your mind? Ring 0423 011 252 and ask the people who'd build it.
Can customers get alerts when we're nearby?
Yes. Customers sign up for location alerts by area and get an SMS or email when you're parked in a suburb they picked.
Does order-ahead work with our POS?
Usually. We connect to Square, Lightspeed and most popular POS systems so online orders, payments and sales sit alongside your walk-up takings.
What happens when reception is bad at a market?
We design for it. The order screen holds what it has and catches up when signal comes back. We'll talk through your regular spots so it suits the places you actually park.
Can we take wedding and corporate bookings online?
Yes. An enquiry form collects the date, guest numbers, venue, power and dietary needs. Then you can send a quote, take a deposit and track final numbers in one place.
We already use Uber Eats or another ordering app. Do we have to switch?
No. If something is doing its job we build around it. If it's eating your margin or holding you back, we'll show you what replacing it would involve before anything changes.
How much does a food truck system cost?
It depends on what you need, so we quote up front once we understand it. No surprise invoices, no lock-in and you own what we build.
How long does it take?
Smaller jobs like a location page or sold-out toggles can be quick. Bigger systems are planned in stages so you get the first win early instead of waiting for everything at once.
Who looks after it once it's built?
We do. We host it on our own managed servers and keep it updated and secure. When you need something you ring the people who built it.
We already have systems. Can you upgrade them instead of starting again?
Usually, yes. Most food trucks we work with keep what's working and upgrade the rest in stages. We move your data across, connect the old and new while we switch and retire the old system only when the new one is proven.
